Nine
years ago, we were forced to stop carrying these exquisite works of art
because our artist, Taiwan's leading Temple-Art restorer Mr. K. Y. Lin,
began only taking commissions for private collectors....needless to say,
the purchasers of those first offerings are quite pleased as the value
of their collections have increased 10 fold !!

We are
pleased to once again make these unique pieces of hand-crafted art
available to our clients and friends !!

I
would like to introduce you to the work of our Artist
Mr. J. T. Ho. Mr. Ho is a Master of the Art of Koji Pottery...the
traditional method of Roof-tile Art. Please take a moment to look
at the pictures below...unfortunately, they do not do justice to the
broad range of colors and textures in Mr. Ho's
stunning creations !!

Many
of the Figures represent the signs of the Chinese Zodiac as well as
Mythological Figures and symbols for Longevity, Good Health and Wealth.

Figures
such as these have historically been found surrounding the terra cotta
roofs on Chinese Temples to offer protection to those who enter.

These
are limited in the number to be produced ! Each of these are
available for $350 for the animals and $255 for the single warriors. As they are each hand-made, no two will be exactly
the same and will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis.
